THE JEREMY KYLE SHOW guest, who died days after recording the episode, failed a lie detector test he hoped would prove he had not been cheating on his partner.

Steve Dymond was set to appear as a guest on the show, which has now been pulled off air indefinitely following the shock revelations on Monday. The 63-year-old, named by The Sun, died just a week after the show was filmed. He participated in a lie detector test in a bid to prove that allegations he had cheated on fiance Jane Callaghan were not true.
